GO GRIZZLIES!! At the 7:00 game tonight we will have a small Senior Night celebration for the Grizzlies Girls and Boys Basketball teams. We are limited to 140 people in the school during the game due to COVID, but we hope those of you watching the live stream from home will celebrate with us!

Mary Pete is Stebbins recipient of BSSD’s February Special Education Paraprofessional of the Month! In her nomination, Special Ed teacher Cherry Malaque shares that Mary “communicates and collaborates well regarding her students' concerns and helps me understand the intricacies of the culture in the village. She welcomes guidance positively and is eager to help and learn.” Well done and congratulations, Mary! Thank you for your commitment to the children of Stebbins.
